Alexandrium is a neurotoxin-producing dinoflagellate genus resulting in paralytic shellfish poisonings around the world. However, little is known about the toxin biosynthesis mechanism in Alexandrium. This study compared protein profiles of A. catenella collected at different toxin biosynthesis stages (non-toxin synthesis, initial toxin synthesis and toxin synthesizing) coupled with the cell c...

the development of green approaches for the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (agnps) is of prime significance in the field of nanotechnology research. a fast and eco-friendly protocol for the biosynthesis of extracellular agnps using culture supernatant (cs) from the fungus cunninghamella phaeospora was studied in this work. this cs was proved as a potential new source for the extracellular...

The EARLY MATURITY 8 (EAM8) gene of barley is homologous to the FLOWERING 3 (ELF3) in Arabidopsis, as loss-of-function mutations this circadian clock promote rapid flowering. A previous study demonstrated that early flowering phenotype a hulless barley, Lalu, was due allele eam8.l carrying an alternative splicing mutation intron led retention. In present study, we verified encoded truncated pro...

Rice protein is considered an important dietary source. Information regarding rice nutrient-related expression still scarce, hence further study investigating this aspect highly needed. Herein, we applied sequential window acquisition of all theoretical mass spectra (SWATH-MS) for a comparative proteomic analysis across six different Malaysian varieties. These consisted black (BR: PH9 and BALI)...

Sphingoid intermediates accumulate in response to a variety of stresses, including heat, and trigger cellular responses. However, the mechanism by which stress affects sphingolipid biosynthesis has yet to be identified. Recent studies in yeast suggest that sphingolipid biosynthesis is regulated through phosphorylation of the Orm proteins, which in humans are potential risk factors for childhood...

Starch biosynthesis is a complex and highly controlled process that requires coordinated activities among multiple enzymes. synthase III (SSIII) the largest protein in starch its function to lengthen long-chain amylopectin synthesis. It potentially affects activity of other key enzymes synthesis through protein–protein interactions; therefore, regulation play predominant role In this review, we...
